Al-Shanbari, Humod Ahmed. "The scientific and technical information system in Saudi higher education : a systems approach." Thesis, Loughborough University, 1998. https://dspace.lboro.ac.uk/2134/32368.
Full textAbstract:
Continuing change in the provision of, and access to, scientific and technical information has stimulated the interest of researchers to study current information provision and usage in different work environments. The aim of this thesis is to study the current operation of the STI system in the Saudi higher education environment. A systems approach was adopted in order to have a holistic view of the requirements of this study. Since the systems approach is a concept, rather than a specific methodology, a number of framework research models that take the systems approach into consideration were developed to guide the investigation of both the information systems and the users.

Hodges, Richard Allen. "Emerging from Resistance: The Origins of the Virginia Technical College System." W&M ScholarWorks, 2016. https://scholarworks.wm.edu/etd/1463428492.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore factors leading to the founding of the Virginia Technical College System (VTCS). These factors are observed primarily within the timeframe of 1954-1966. The Virginia Community College System (VCCS) evolved from the Technical College System, and began in 1964. Classes started at the first technical colleges in September 1965. Despite the writings of two previous histories concerning the founding of the VCCS, one in 1977 and another in 1987, the events that led to the creation of the technical college system have never been documented, nor have the linkages between the technical college system and the Virginia’s business and industry community been investigated. Pointedly, the influence of the series of events, beginning with the Brown v. Board of Education ruling in 1954 and the subsequent Massive Resistance movement in Virginia, created a particular climate for the founding of the Department of Technical Education 10 years later. The research questions at the heart of this study sought to understand better the social, political, and economic circumstances under which the colleges were formed. This research used oral history methods and documentary research methods to create a historiographic overview of the founding of the VTCS. This research determined that the contested environment of Massive Resistance contributed to the founding of the VTCS.

Full textAbstract:
This phenomenological study focused on the lived experiences of 17 deans in the Wisconsin Technical College System as they dealt with the end of collective bargaining. The interviews explored how the phenomenon impacted the professional role of the dean, how it changed key responsibilities, and the anticipated and unanticipated changes experienced as a result of this change. Four major themes emerged including: (1) change evoked a range of emotions and feelings in faculty that deans needed to address; (2) collective bargaining defined how deans did their work and shaped relationships; (3) the collective bargaining contract was a rule book that both complicated and simplified; and (4) collective bargaining locked what is known as golden handcuffs. The findings of this research contribute to the body of knowledge related to the deanship and organizational change in the presence of formal labor-management structures and relationships.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores the system of architectural education in the Middle East Technical University Department of Architecture between 1956 and 1980. The formation and the transformation of the system of architectural education in the school are investigated with references to the evolution of the social, political, economic and architectural context of Turkey in the period and the systems of architectural education applied in the country. The education in the Department of Architecture not only formed its system according to the Bauhaus program as applied in the postwar American context, but also transformed it with changing architectural theory and the design methodology. Both the school's system of architectural education and the institutional identity established by the school provided significant contributions to the institutionalization of architectural education in Turkey. Besides, in the following decades, the school'
s system of education became basic model for other institutions in the country in re-structuring their systems. In this respect, by focusing on the M.E.T.U. Department of Architecture'
s system of architectural education, this study aims to be a history of the Middle East Technical University and the social, political, economic and architectural context of the period as well.

Eldridge, Brent A. "EXPLORING FACULTY ADOPTION AND UTILIZATION OF BLACKBOARD AT A COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN THE KENTUCKY COMMUNITY AND TECHNICAL COLLEGE SYSTEM." UKnowledge, 2014. http://uknowledge.uky.edu/epe_etds/24.
Full textAbstract:
The study explored the faculty adoption and use of a Blackboard at a community college in the Kentucky Community and Technical College System. A cross-sectional survey design was constructed through the lens of Rogers’s Perceived Attributes of Innovations and Chickering and Ehrman’s Implementing Seven Principles: Technology as a Lever to investigate perceptions and opinions on faculty members’ use of Blackboard in their courses. The survey was piloted, modified and deployed to a population of 932 central Kentucky community college faculty who were recruited to participate in the online survey. Descriptive demographic items (gender, age, highest degree attained, years of teaching experience, employment status, and category of instruction) were cross-tabulated with users and nonusers of Blackboard. An additional cross-tabulation was performed on faculty who did and did not teach online. A Rasch analysis with Differential Item Functioning (DIF) was used to evaluate responses to the perceived attributes and opinions about the use of Blackboard. The Rasch model was employed since the model assumes that each person is characterized by ability, that each item of the survey is characterized by difficulty and that the results of differences in the probabilities of items and responses follow along a line. Misfit of items and faculty did occur and quality control measures were applied to the collected data. A Z-Residual table for the dichotomous items was applied to remove responses that were extreme or greater than 2 ZSTD. An Outfit plot for polytomous items was utilized to remove faculty responses above 3 ZSTD. Some items were determined to be redundant according to the Wright maps and Infit/Outfit tables. The results indicated 2 or 3 levels of discrimination in person reliability and an item separation that allowed an analysis of groups. Rogers’s perceived characteristics that persuade people to adopt a new innovation were indicated as differences between users and nonusers of Blackboard. In contrast to a previous study, those faculty who responded to the survey with 0-1 years of teaching experience had the greatest ratio of nonusers to users. Those respondents who associated their teaching to categories of pre-college and language had more nonusers than users of Blackboard. An overall theme where nonusers agreed more than users was the lack of seeing Blackboard, observing how to use Blackboard and not being able to properly try Blackboard. But users should also be encouraged to expand their use of Blackboard. The majority of users employed: syllabus, announcements, full grade center, course copy, and test and survey pool, but less than half who responded as users employed: discussion board, course calendar, and performance dashboard which may lead to increased communication between the faculty and students. The information obtained from the survey should be utilized when developing professional development activities to encourage Blackboard adoption and use. By studying the adoption and utilization of Blackboard by faculty through the lens of Rogers, the study highlighted differences in the characteristics that persuade faculty to use Blackboard. Through consistent utilization of course management systems, such as Blackboard, the hope is that communication between students and faculty will be enhanced which will ultimately help students to grow, develop and learn.

Doctoral thesis, Saechsische Landesbibliothek- Staats- und Universitaetsbibliothek Dresden, 2013. http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bsz:14-qucosa-126927.
Full textAbstract:
Die Beschäftigungsfähigkeit ist einer der größten Anliegen in El Salvador, besonders für Jugendlichen (UNPD, 2008). Außerdem betont die Studie über die Herausforderungen des Bildungssystems in El Salvador die Notwendigkeit, eine Anknüpfung zwischen Akademie und Industrie zu haben (Barraza, 2008). In diesem Kontext begann El Salvador in 2008 die Umsetzung von einigen Elementen des Deutschen Dualsystems (neues System) im Bereich der technologischen Ausbildung, mit der Absicht, einen Versuch zu machen ob dieses System bessere Kompetenzen bei Studenten entwickelt, welche ihnen bessere Arbeitseinsatzmöglichkeiten anbietet. Im Dualsystem wird die Ausbildung von der Akademie und Industriesektor geleistet. Grundsätzliche Ziele waren: (1) Analyse der Einflüsse zur Ansteigung der Beschäftigungsfähigkeit unter Gebrauch einer besseren Kombination von Theorie und Praxis während des Studiums – Möglichkeiten einer Dualerfahrung aus Deutschland unter den Bedingungen in El Salvador (2) Analyse der Möglichkeiten und Probleme unter Berücksichtigung des Kompetenzschwerpunktes für die Entwicklung und Beschäftigungsfähigkeit der Studenten; (3) Festlegung, ob die Studenten mit Studienausgang in 2008-2010, die im Dualsystem teilgenommen haben, bessere berufliche Kompetenzen zur Einsetzung im Produktivprozess erlangt haben im Vergleich zu diejenigen aus dem traditionalem System (ohne Unternehmenserfahrung); (4) Festlegung der Einflussfaktoren die den Industriesektor an der Teilnahme am Dualsystem motivieren; und (5) Darstellung der Folgen aus der Umsetzung dieses Systems unter den salvadorianischen Gegebenheiten und Anregungen zu deren Anpassung zu entwickeln. Bei der Untersuchung ging es um die Erstellung eines Vergleichs zwischen Studenten der Studienrichtung Mechatronik mit Ausgang in 2008 – 2010; ein Student aus dem Dualsystem und einer aus dem traditionellen System. Die angewandte wissenschaftliche Methodologie war eine Verknüpfung von einer quantitativen und qualitativen Methode mit Fragebogen, Interviews und Messungen der Kompetenzen, nötige Zeit zum Erwerben einer Arbeitsstelle und Gehaltsbedingungen. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung waren: (a) Beide Gruppen hatten ähnliche Kompetenzen laut ihrer akademischen Benotung, aber bessere Kompetenzen für die Duale Gruppe wenn Arbeitsbedingungen eingeschlossen sind. In Bezug auf die Motivation der Entscheidungsträgern hat die Untersuchung folgendes erwiesen: (1) Vorherige Kenntnis über das System (2) Personen sind mit bessere Kompetenzen bedarfsgerecht für die Industrie ausgebildet; (3) Minderung des Risikos, falsche Leute aufzunehmen; (4) Optimierung der Ausbildungskosten, (5) Innovation einer neuen Studienrichtung die vom Unternehmen benötigt wird; (6) Soziale Verantwortung; und (7) Verbesserung der Produktivität und Qualität. Schlussfolgerung ist, das Dualsystem könnte eine Möglichkeit für die Verbesserung der Kompetenzniveaus als auch für die Beschäftigungsfähigkeit der Studenten in El Salvador sein, jedoch bringt es neue Herausforderungen für das technologische AusbildungssystemEmployability is one of the biggest concerns in El Salvador, especially for young people (UNPD, 2008). Besides, the study about challenges in the educative system in El Salvador, outlines the necessity to have a link between academy and industry (Barraza, 2008). Under this context 2008, El Salvador began the implementation of some elements of the German Dual System (New system) in technological education, with the purpose to experiment if this system developed better competences in students allowing them better job opportunities. In Dual System, the formation is developed between the academy and the enterprise. The main purposes were: (1) To analyze influences to rise employability under using of better combination of theory and practice in studies - possibilities of dual experiences from Germany for El Salvador`s conditions; (2) to analyze possibilities and problems using competences approach for student’s development and employability; (3) to determine if the students of cohort 2008-2010 who study under dual system acquire better professional competences to be inserted in the productive process that those from traditional system (without enterprise curriculum); (4) to determine the factors that motivates industrialists to participate in dual system; and (5) to show consequences of implement this system under the Salvadoran reality and develop suggestions its adaptation. The research was comparing students from cohort 2008 – 2010 in Mechatronic career; one in dual and other in traditional system. The scientific methodology to apply were a combination of quantitative and qualitative method with questionnaires, interviews and measurements about competences, time to get a job and the salary conditions. Results of the research are: (a) both groups had similar competences according academics grades, but better competences for Dual group when jobs conditions are included. About decision makers motivations, findings were: (1) Previous knowledge about the system; (2) People with better competences according the needs of the company; (3) to reduce the risk to hire wrong people; (4) Optimize training costs, (5) the innovation of a new career that enterprise needs; (6) social responsibility; and (7) to improve the productivity and quality. In conclusion, Dual system could be an opportunity in El Salvador for improving the level of competences, and the employability of the students, but it means new challenges in technological educational system

Full textAbstract:
In 1993 a Career and Technical Preparation Task Force, was formed in a nothern Virginia suburban school system, to study and recommend changes to the vocational education curriculum and two high school vocational centers. The task force met for thirteen months and concluded its study in a report entitled "Securing Our Students' Future in a High Tech Global Economy." The Division Superintendent presented this report and its recommendations to the county school board on January 12, 1995. The Board voted unanimously to accept the recommendations of the task force. After that point, an Implementation Task Force met from 1996to 1996 to plan the implementation of the original task force's seven recommendations. The recommendations represented a paradigm shift by advocating the elimination of the traditional vocational education philosophy of training some students for jobs while academically preparing others for future education. Vocational education was transformed into Professional Technical Studies, an academic discipline that integrated academic and career education. High school academies were established to replace the two vocational centers located within two existing high schools. The history that surrounded the implementation of the task force recommendations is presented in this study.Ed. D.

Full textAbstract:
Cette recherche concerne l’étude de l’efficacité d’outils liés à l’analyse fonctionnelle. Le contexte est celui d’enseignements et d’apprentissages qui visent la compréhension de systèmes techniques en éducation technologique au collège. L’utilisation de ces outils issus de l’industrie dans le système éducatif pose des problèmes d’adaptation. La place de l’analyse fonctionnelle, comme langage technique, est analysée au travers de la genèse instrumentale de l’artefact, de l’activité des élèves et de la transposition des savoirs. La problématique de l’efficacité des outils se pose chez les élèves pour comprendre la globalité d’un système technique et, chez les enseignants pour structurer l’apprentissage. La méthodologie a été menée de manière qualitative et quantitative auprès de ces acteurs. Deux expérimentations ont eu lieu, une première avec les enseignants, basée sur une enquête avec un questionnaire et des entretiens. Une seconde, avec les élèves, s’appuyait sur un test d’entrée puis différents exercices écrits et une manipulation opératoire avec une fabrication via une imprimante 3D. Les résultats d’un groupe initié à l’analyse fonctionnelle sont comparés à ceux d’un groupe non initié. Les analyses des données recueillies abordent la façon dont les compétences et les connaissances qui permettent une approche systémique en éducation technologique sont mises en œuvre. Les principaux résultats indiquent que si les enseignants s’emparent de l’analyse fonctionnelle, la maitrise n’est pas totale. Son enseignement profite plus particulièrement aux élèves ayant des difficultés scolaires. Ces éléments sont explicités, approfondis et mis en perspective dans cette thèseThis doctoral research concerns the study of the effectiveness of some tools related to the functional analysis. The context is the teaching and learning process of technical systems in technological education in French comprehensive schools. The use of these tools coming from the industry in the educational system poses problems of adaptations. The place of functional analysis as a technical language is analyzed through the instrumental genesis of the artifact, the activity of students and through the transposition of knowledge. The issue of effectiveness of these tools arise among pupils to understand the whole of a technical system and among teachers to structure learning. The methodology was conducted in a qualitative and quantitative manner with these actors. Two experiments took place, with teachers first, based on a survey with a questionnaire and interviews. A second, with students, was based on an entry test and various written exercises and operative manipulation with a manufacture via a 3D printer. The results of a group introduced to functional analysis are compared with those of a group not initiated. Data analyses address the manner in which the skills and knowledge that enable a systemic approach in technological education are implemented. The main results indicate that if teachers take over the functional analysis, control is not total. His teaching mainly benefits to pupils with scholar difficulties. These elements are detailed in-depth and put into perspective in this thesis

Full textAbstract:
The advance of the internet and Web 2.0 technologies continue to drive a dramatic change in the way people access and share information through various channels of communication. In the education sector, several learning management systems have been integrated into teaching and learning activities. To increase more interactivities between teachers and learners, tools for synchronous video conferencing are implemented in universities to enable online education. Prior studies indicate that the adoption and use of the tools in higher education institutions have been substantially expanding, more particularly in developed countries. Therefore, understanding the state of integrating synchronous video conference tools to support teaching and learning activities is important for scholars and academicians as this innovative communication technology is proven to have a substantial impact on quality education and effective learning. In Rwanda, before COVID-19, research on the adoption and use of video conference systems is still scarce. The objective of this study was therefore twofold: (1) to understand the adoption and use of synchronous video conference technologies for teaching and learning purposes and (2) to propose a strategy for effective implementation and value addition of video conferencing tools (VCT) at University of Rwanda. A qualitative method was adopted and case study was used as a research strategy for this research. Meanwhile, the Social-Technical System theory was applied in this research for data collection, analysis and reporting of results. 17 responses from participants (teachers and eLearning Officers) were collected using an online internet-based survey questionnaire. Key findings indicate that the adoption and use of video conference systems was found to be at a lower level and the associated contributing inhibitors were identified and reported in this research. Based on the empirical findings and on the responses from participants, this study proposed a contextual strategy for effective integration of video conference systems at the case study institution. Overall, this study concluded that for an effective delivery of live lectures through webinars enabled by the web-based video conference tools, the 10 elements composing the proposed action-oriented strategy for integrating video conference systems should be taken into consideration by the case study institution. Practical and scientific contributions of this research are reported in this thesis and recommendations for further research in connection with the current one have been also put forward.

Full textAbstract:
The creation and development of educational hypermedia by teachers and educational staff is often limited by their lack of computing skills, time and support from the educational institutions. Especially the lack of computing skills is a hinderance to most of today’s educational experts. The problem is to find out how those educational experts could be supported by computer based tools which are tailored especially to their needs without having any technical limitations. In this study the separation of technical and educational content in educational hypermedia is examined as a solution to this problem. The main hypothesis of this study is that the separation of technical and educational content is possible if it is based on a fine-grained structure of different teaching and learning strategies and their conversion into an authoring tool. Such an authoring tool would make the creation of educational hypermedia very easy for teachers and therefore enable them to overcome the existing obstacles. The development of a new model, the creation of a new XML language and the implementation of a new authoring tool form the basis for a detailed investigation. The investigation was done by undertaking several research tasks like the evaluation of the XML language and the authoring tool by a group of educational experts of different knowledge domains, the practical usage of the authoring tool for the creation of real-life based educational material and the analysis of the gained research results. The analysis of the qualitative data showed that the separation of educational and technical content in educational hypermedia is possible and that it can be applied by educational experts with low computing skills as well as by technical experts with no educational background. Furthermore, the analysis allowed some additional insights into the creation of educational material by teachers and how it can be improved. The main conclusion of this study is that authoring tools in educational hypermedia should use the separation of educational and technical content based on different teaching and learning strategies which allows educational experts with low computing skills to create educational content for delivery via the World Wide Web.

The learning process of introductory studies, the orthogonal projective system and constituent elements (point, line and plane), used in Geometry for high school students in technical training courses makes it difficult to develop spatial vision and graphic representation. Learning to see allows the student to understand the formation of projections and return to the practice of observation. Three-dimensional visualization produces recognition of the projected image. The development of this learning cannot be restricted to study based only on programmed handouts with forms or feedback solutions.This Design-Based Research developed and implemented a system of security cameras to aid in visualization. This innovation provided for the construction of an educational experience that fosters collaborative learning through interaction with three-dimensional models of the objects to be represented in graphic drawings. The proposal to investigate the practice of graphic representation and strategies for development of this graphic language was carried out with students, aged between 14 and 17 years, in high school at a state technical school. Data collection was done by the researcher in research logs, activities proposed in class and recordings from security cameras positioned to capture the image ?pura. Results underline the importance of creating an educational process applied to technical drawing that develops the act of the careful observation and integration of objects and images with the main aspects of projective drawing. This enables the learning of the concepts of descriptive geometry and facilitates the visualization of the trihedral system and the design of the principal orthographic views (front, top and side) utilizing varied teaching strategies

This research effort was designed to analyze the current federal career and technical education legislation to determine methods of â operationalizingâ the policy at the state and local levels. In performing the policy analysis, organizational and systems viewpoints were consistently used in determining the intent of the legislation and then how to structure a program evaluation system to fulfill the policy goals. The research methodology is a hybrid interdisciplinary method that combined policy and system analyses. Secondary career and technical education legislation served as a test case to develop the program evaluation system strategies and requirements because the researcher was familiar with this segment of education and the policies associated with it. Program evaluation theoretical foundations were presented as means to understand the policy intentions and to develop a conceptual system model. The resulting system model was presented with actual examples of system constructs. Detailed process flowcharts were developed to show the system structure and functions. Organizational responsibilities and requirements were addressed in the system model development. An additional component of the systems analysis was to determine the system implementation sequence. The implementation sequence is based on a longitudinal program evaluation design that spans a five-year interval for each graduation year cohort. The system model resulting from this research is one of many possible variations that could be developed to satisfy the requirements of the federal Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Applied Technology Education Act of 1998. The system analysis and model development strategies can be applied to other education and socioeconomic policies that deliver human services with accountability requirements. No attempt was made to perform a system cost analysis in this research effort.Ph. D.

Resumo: Neste trabalho, procuramos trazer para o âmbito acadêmico discussões referentes a uma modalidade de ensino que nele tem ocupado pouco espaço: o técnico agrícola. Utilizamos a História Oral como principal metodologia de pesquisa, além de visitas às escolas agrícolas focadas e consultas a documentos em seus arquivos, como antigos livros ponto e livros de ata. A partir de entrevistas com professores de Matemática que atuaram nesses núcleos de ensino nas décadas de 1950 a 1970, tentamos constituir uma história de sua formação em Matemática, suas formas de atuação, especificidades dessas escolas e inserção do discurso desses professores na história da Educação Matemática Brasileira, assumindo o conceito de marginalização como principal eixo para as análises.
Abstract: This work intends to bring to academic universe a theme that has been usually neglected by researchers: the Agricultural Technical School system. Although Oral History was the main methodological approach chosen, visits to some of these schools were done and also written documentation was used as guides. Our starting point to this study was interviews with Math teachers who had lead classrooms in these schools from 50's to 70's. In these interviews they told us about their initial and in-service formation and about the agricultural technical schooling in general. From this we tried to inscribe Agricultural Technical School and its teachers in the discourse of History of Education in Brazil and, particularly, in the History of Brazilian Mathematics Education, assuming the concept of marginalization as the main axis in our analysis.

The purpose of this research study was to identify and prioritize the professional development needs for teachers of CTAE subjects within metropolitan Atlanta school systems. The methodology was primarily relational with descriptive components that relied on quantitative data. The administered survey called for participants to self-report demographic groups (i.e. Experience Level, School Type, and School Population). Secondly, participants completed online surveys yielding data that identified professional development needs relative to demographic variables. A modified Borich (1980) Needs Assessment Model was used to identify the perceived importance and perceived competency of 20 competencies prescribed by the Georgia Teacher Assessment of Performance Standards (TAPS). Once analyzed, the researcher identified and described professional development needs relative to demographic variables.

Full textAbstract:
The primary purpose of this study was to compare three instructional delivery systems for providing basic math skills training to non-degree industrial and technical teachers. Also examined was the extent to which selected teacher background characteristics were associated with test performance. Additionally, the three treatment groups were compared on the basis of student ratings of selected items on the course evaluation instrument.
Eighty-four non-degree industrial and technical teachers teaching in West Virginia were given a pretest on basic math skills. This pretest was followed by a seven-week period of basic math review and remediation using one of three instructional delivery systems. The three instructional delivery systems included Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI), Individualized Learning Modules (ILM), and the traditional lecture (LEC). A posttest was administered to participants at the end of the review and remediation period.
An analysis of covariance was used to compare the mean posttest scores for each of the three treatment groups. The pretest score served as the covariate. Results of the study indicated that although there were substantial gains in basic math scores within each treatment group there was no significant difference in mean posttest scores when comparing the three treatment groups.
Computing the Pearson Product-Moment correlation in assessing the relationship between selected teacher background characteristics and posttest scores, it was found that the variables pretest and age were significantly related. Pretest scores had a high positive correlation to posttest scores while age had a moderate negative correlation.
A one-way analysis of variance was used to compare the ratings of selected items on the course evaluation instrument. No significant difference in ratings between treatment groups was found for any of the items compared.Ed. D.

O estudo apresenta uma análise dos principais determinantes da eficiência técnica das escolas do ensino básico brasileiras. Por se tratar de uma amostra de escolas do Saeb (Sistema de Avaliação do Ensino Brasileiro) para os anos de 1999, 2001 e 2003, optou-se por utilizar um método conhecido como fronteira estocástica. Todos os exercícios foram realizados com as instituições da quarta e oitava séries do ensino fundamental e terceira série do ensino médio, dando ênfase para a quarta série do ensino fundamental em duas disciplinas, Matemática e Português. Dois modelos foram aplicados, sendo que um deles inclui variáveis ambientais como regressores da fronteira estocástica (Modelo A), enquanto o outro especifica a ineficiência técnica como dependente dessas variáveis ambientais (Modelo B). Ambos os modelos mostraram que a eficiência técnica depende positivamente da escolaridade da mãe e do fato do aluno ser branco e negativamente com a proporção de alunos reprovados. Contudo, os dois modelos produziram estimativas de ineficiência técnica distintas, diferenciando-se em termos de média e de densidade. De forma geral, foi possível identificar ineficiência técnica média menor do que 5%. Ademais, foi possível verificar uma correlação positiva entre desempenho escolar e ineficiência técnica das escolas brasileiras. Dada a disponibilidade de um painel de escolas para os anos de análise, num segundo momento, foram realizados alguns exercícios comparativos com os resultados gerados pela amostra total do SAEB e com os resultados do painel de escolas. Um deles, se fez com a estimação da fronteira de produção propriamente dita, comparando-se os coeficientes e a significância das variáveis. O outro levou em conta o ranking de ineficiência gerado pela regressão. Os resultados comparativos sugerem que o painel de escolas não é por si só suficiente para explicar toda amostra de escolas pesquisadas pelo Saeb, mesmo que apresentem similaridades.This study presents an analysis of the main determinants of technical efficiency of primary and secondary schools in Brazil. Since we used a sample of schools from the database Saeb (Assessment System for Brazilian Education) for the years 1999, 2001 and 2003, we chose to use a method known as stochastic frontier. All exercises were performed in the institutions of the fourth and eighth grades of elementary school and third grade of secondary education, with emphasis on the fourth grade of primary education in two disciplines, Mathematics and Portuguese. Two models were applied, one of which includes environmental variables as regressors of the stochastic frontier (Model A), while the other specifies the technical inefficiency as dependent on these environmental variables (Model B). Both models showed that the technical efficiency positively depends on the mothers education and the fact that the student is white and depends negatively of the proportion of students who failed. However, both models produced distinct estimates of technical inefficiency, differing in terms of average and density. In general it was possible to identify technical inneficiency average less than 5%. Furthermore, it was also observed a positive correlation between schools performance and technical inefficiency of the Brazilian schools. Given the availability of a panel of schools for the years of analysis, in a second moment, we performed some comparative exercises with the results generated by the total sample of SAEB and the panel results of schools. One of them, was done with the estimation of the production frontier itself, comparing the coefficients and significance of the variables. The other took into account the ranking of inefficiency generated sufficient by the regression. The comparative results suggest that the panel of schools is not by itself sufficient to explain the entire sample of schools surveyed by Saeb although they present similarities.

The purpose of this study was to examine opportunities to teach about the mobile phone system for primary school pupils. This was explored by seeing if and how the students' understanding, perception and knowledge changed by taking part in an educational activity about the mobile phone system. Data were collected with the help of audio recording of the lesson itself, but also with the help of worksheets where the students first filled in their prerequisites and then what they had learned about the mobile phone system after the educational activity. The study was performed at three different schools and in three different classes in year 2–3 in the countryside, in an urban area and in a larger city. The last two schools are also multicultural with many second language students in the classes. The fact that three quite different schools were chosen was to increase the reliability of the results and see how well the educational activity works despite the students' differ-ent circumstances.The result show a major improvement in the students' knowledge of the mobile phone system as none of the students had any direct knowledge of how the mobile phone system works, for example, how to make a call or send a text message. The result also shows that the knowledge between the different schools did not differ much, but the difference that was seen was the students' different ways of describing the mobile phone system.Syftet med denna studie var att ta reda på möjligheter att undervisa om mobiltelefonsystemet för lågstadieelever. Detta undersöktes genom att se om och hur elevernas förståelse, uppfattning och kunskap förändrades av en pedagogisk aktivitet om mobiltelefonsystemet. Data om denna aktivitet samlades in med hjälp av ljudinspelning av själva lektionen men också med hjälp av arbetsblad där eleverna först fyllde i sina förkunskaper och sedan vad det lärt sig om mobiltelefonsystemet efter den pedagogiska aktiviteten. Studien utfördes på tre olika skolor och i tre olika klasser i årskurs 2–3 på landsbygden, en tätort och i en större stad. De två sistnämnda skolorna är även mångkulturella, de vill säga med mestadels andraspråkselever i klasserna. Resultateten visade på stora förbättringar av elevernas kunskap om mobiltelefonsystemet då ingen av eleverna hade något direkt förkunskap om hur det fungerar att exempelvis ringa ett samtal eller skicka ett sms. Resultatet visar även att kunskapen mellan de olika skolorna inte skiljde sig åt särskilt mycket men den skillnad som gick att se var elevernas olika sätt att beskriva mobiltelefonsystemet.

O objetivo desse estudo é avaliar a eficiência técnica dos sistemas municipais de educação no Estado de São Paulo, especificamente no nível de ensino fundamental. Para calcular a eficiência técnica na provisão de serviços educacionais, vamos empregar o método não-paramétrico denominado Análise Envoltória de Dados Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) em dois estágios. O primeiro estágio consiste em calcular os índices de eficiência pelo modelo DEA e, o segundo em estimar, por meio de uma regressão censurada Tobit, os parâmetros das variáveis que podem influenciar nos índices obtidos no primeiro estágio. Os resultados identificaram, sob a hipótese de retornos variáveis à escala, 93 municípios eficientes tecnicamente e, que os municípios operam em média com 14% de ineficiência de escala. Foi possível, ainda, constatar o grau de influência das variáveis socioeconômicas sobre a eficiência técnica e, identificar os fatores que afetam positivamente a eficiência técnica dos sistemas municipais de educação, como a escolaridade das mães, não reprovar de ano, entre outros.The objective of this study is to evaluate the technical efficiency of the municipal system of education in the state of São Paulo, specifically in the level of fundamental school. To calculate the technical efficiency in the provision of educational services we will adopt the non parametric method denominated Data envelopment analysis (DEA) in two stages. The first stage consists in calculate the efficiency indexes with the DEA model and the second consists in estimate through a censored regression Tobit, the parameters of the variables that can influence the indexes obtained in the first stage. The results identified, under the hypothesis of variables returns to scale, 93 municipals technically efficient and that the municipals operate with 14% of inefficiency of scale. It was possible yet to identify the degree of influence of the socioeconomic variables over the technical efficiency and the factors that affect positively the technical efficiency of the municipal systems of education as the mothers educational level, non repetition, amongst others.

Full textAbstract:
Le développement de l'usage de simulateurs dans les formations techniques et professionnelles tend, pour des raisons économiques et de modernité, à se généraliser. Cette tendance est perceptible dans les établissements gabonais sans que l'on puisse savoir si cette introduction est justifiée, que l'on considère le point de vue didactique - qu'est-ce que leur introduction modifie dans le rapport au savoir ? – ou du point de vue de l'enseignement – qu'est-ce que cela modifie dans les pratiques des enseignants ? – ou encore du point de vue des élèves – quel impact ont-ils sur les apprentissages ? La thèse présentée vise à comprendre les conditions de légitimation de cet usage dans la formation des élèves de la filière maintenance des systèmes motorisés et dans quelles logiques de formation ils s'inscrivent. Paradoxalement, les résultats montrent que, d'une part, les simulateurs pallient dans une certaine mesure les déficits chroniques d'équipement des établissements gabonais. Mais, d'autre part, ces résultats soulignent toute l'ambiguïté que leur usage véhicule. En effet, cet usage impacte le processus d'enseignement apprentissage qui se déconnecte des besoins de formation. Pour les enseignants, les simulateurs ne sont que peu utilisés lorsqu'ils existent alors que ceux qui n'en ont pas ont tendance à leur prêter de nombreuses vertus pédagogiques. Cette tendance se retrouve à peu près à l'identique chez les élèvesThe development of the use of simulators in technical and vocational trainings tends to generalize, for economic and modernity reasons. This tendency is perceptible in the Gabonese schools without one being able to know if this introduction is justified, if we consider the didactic point of view - what does their introduction modify in the report with the knowledge ? - or from the point of view of teaching - what does that modify in the practices of the teachers ? - or from the point of view of the pupils - which impact have do on the learning ? The presented thesis aims at understanding the conditions of legitimation of this use in training of the pupils of the sector of the maintenance of the motorized systems and in which logics of formation they fit. Paradoxically, the results show that, on the one hand, the simulators mitigate to a certain extent the chronic deficits of Gabonese equipment of the vocational schools. But, in addition, these results underline all ambiguity that their use conveys. Indeed, this use impacts the process of teaching-learning which is disconnected from the needs for training. For the teachers, the simulators are little used when they exist whereas those which do not have any tend to lend many teaching virtues to them. This tendency is found about with identical at the pupils. In fact, the only equipment of the establishments is not enough ; it is clear that their introduction must be thought in terms of curricula, of teacher training and of acculturation of the pupils through the development of a technology education in their general education

Genom den pedagogiska aktiviteten gavs barnen möjlighet att färdas genom vattensystemet med sina kroppar och sinnen, från sjön till kranen. För att kartlägga hur barnens förståelse utvecklats genomfördes kvalitativa intervjuer före och efter den pedagogiska aktiviteten.Jämförelsen mellan resultaten av förintervjuerna och uppföljningsintervjuerna pekar på en tydlig utveckling av barnens förståelse av vattnets väg till kranen, som ett tekniskt system. Flera av barnen utvecklade sin förståelse för att vårt hushållsvatten måste genomgå en reningsprocess, färdas genom olika komponenter i vattensystemet och rör innan det slutligen når kranen och kan förtäras.The purpose with this degree thesis was to examine 3-5 year old´s ability to develop their understanding of the path of the water to the tap through an educational activity. Through the educational activity the children was given the opportunity to travel through the water system with their bodies and senses, from the lake to the tap. Qualitative interviews were carried out before and after the educational activity to map out the children´s understanding and how it had developed after the educational activity.The comparison between the results of the pre-interviews and follow-up interviews indicate a clear development of the children´s understanding of the path of water to the tap, as a technical system. Several of the children developed the understanding that our domestic water must undergo a purification process, travel through various components of the water system and pipes before it finally reaches the tap and can be ingested.

Full textAbstract:
Syftet med studien är att presentera ett designkoncept för publika diskussioner på nätet med målet att uppnå djupare diskussioner och minska mängden information overload. Arbetet använder metoden Concept Driven Interaction Design (CDID) som går ut på att skapa ett designkoncept utifrån flera olika teorier som appliceras genom interaktionsdesign. Ett designkoncept innehåller tre delar: ett namn, ett syfte och huvudprinciper. CDID innehåller sju steg som arbetet är utformat efter: 1. Concept Generation – Summeras i en tabell som jämför diskussioner i forum (med flera antagande) och diskussioner med hjälp av metoden Philosophy for Children (P4C), samt annan teori. 2. Concept Exploration – Åtta olika designaspekter identifieras utifrån jämförelsetabellen. 3. Internal Concept Critique – Designaspekterna jämförs med två snarlika diskussionsformat. 4. Design of Artifacts – Designkoncept version 1 skapas. 5. External Design Critique – Intervjuer utförs för att undersöka intervjupersonerna generella erfarenheter av online diskussioner, testar antagandena från jämförelsetabellen och ge direkt feedback på första versionen av designkonceptet. 6. Concept Revisited – Ändringar görs baserat på intervjumaterial och direkt feedback. 7. Concept Contextualization – Designkonceptet kopplas tillbaka till litteraturen. Studien resulterar i ett designkoncept kallat CoFramer och stödjer dessa huvudprinciper som ställs i kontrast till material som identifierats genom intervjuerna: Tabell 1: CoFramers huvudprinciper och faktorer från intervjuer om diskussioner på forum. CoFramers huvudprinciper | Från intervjuer om diskussioner på forum Strukturerad början och slut | Diskussion utan tydligt slut Begränsat antal deltagare | Stor mängd deltagare Minimum antal deltagare | Många inaktiva åskådare Explicita deltagare | Lite information om deltagare Gemensamma förutsättningar | Otydlighet kring deltagares förutsättningar Begränsad informationstäthet per inlägg | Långa inlägg och/eller snabba inlägg Den röda tråden och parallella trådar | Oftast parallella trådar Aktiv samtalsledare | Outredda missförstånd Studien indikerar på att CoFramer bör resultera i mer strukturerade diskussioner och som utsätter användaren för en lägre mängd information overload och mindre grounding cost jämfört med vad som vanligtvis uppstår i publika diskussioner online.The focus of this essay is to develop a design concept for online public discussions with deep discussions and low information overload. The method used is Concept Driven Interaction Design (CDID) which involves constructing a design concept by applying a variety of theories in tangible interaction design. A design concept has three basic parts: a name, high-level goals and outlines generic principles. CDID includes seven steps which is used in this work: 1. Concept Generation – Formatted into a table that compare forum discussion (with several hypothesis) compared to discussions with the method Philosophy for Children (P4C) and other theories. 2. Concept Exploration – Eight distinct design aspects are identified from the comparison table. 3. Internal Concept Critique – The design aspects are compared to three similar discussion formats. 4. Design of Artifacts – Design concept version 1 is created. 5. External Design Critique – Interviews are conducted to explore their general experience of online discussions, investigate the hypothesis from the comparison table and to seek direct feedback on the first draft of the design concept. 6. Concept Revisited – Changes are made to the design concept based on the interview material and the direct feedback. 7. Concept Contextualization – The design concept is related to the original literature. The result of the study is a design concept named CoFramer. CoFramer’s generic principles are summarized and contrasted against factors identified from the interview material in this table: Tabell 2: CoFramer’s generic principles and interviews about online discussions. CoFramer’s generic principles | From interview material on forum discussion Organized start and ending | Discussions without clear ending Limited number of participants | Large number of participants Minimum number of participants | Large number of inactive spectators Explicit participants | Low information about participants Common conditions | Vagueness in participants conditions Limited information density per post | Long posts and/or fast posts The red thread and parallel threads | Often parallel threads Active facilitator | Unresolved misunderstandings The study indicates that CoFramer would create more structured discussions with a lower amount of information overload and less grounding cost compared what normally arise in public online discussions.

Vultosos investimentos são feitos em software e equipamentos sem no entanto alcançar o resultado esperado da "inovação". Para inovar, não basta atender à condição de aporte de recursos ou tecnologias; outros fatores são decisivos. A tese integra a linha de pesquisa denominada Projeto Geo-Escola, que privilegia o aprendizado de Geociências no ensino básico e as tecnologias de informação e comunicação (TICs). A pesquisa explora um modelo de inovação derivado da epistemologia do filósofo e cientista húngaro M. Polanyi e um modelo de estímulo da inovação em empresas - a espiral de conhecimento - desenvolvida por I. Nonaka e H. Takeuchi. Na abordagem, a inovação educacional relaciona-se a duas noções interconectadas: o projeto de aprendizagem com abordagem investigativa e a escola criadora de conhecimentos. A escola criadora de conhecimentos, por sua vez, conecta uma rede de relações que estimula professores, estudantes e gestores a trabalhar juntos, desenvolver aprendizado e elaborar conhecimentos. O substrato da proposta de inovação é múltiplo, porque se fundamenta em: (a) teorias de aprendizagem significativa, passíveis de ser revisitadas pelas oportunidades abertas pelas TICs na Educação, (b) peculiaridade dos raciocínios geocientíficos, (c) finalidades da educação científica e (d) abordagem pedagógica investigativa inspirada em trabalhos de campo em Geologia. O cerne da iniciativa é promover um insight da inovação junto a docentes que desenvolvem projetos multidisciplinares por meio das Geociências com base na realidade local e no interesse dos estudantes e da comunidade. A partir dos primeiros giros da espiral, o Projeto Geo-Escola é criticamente analisado em dois momentos de desenvolvimento: os módulos Campinas e Monte Mor, ambos no Estado de São Paulo. Somam-se às experiências a participação do autor no projeto de formação de professores intitulado Teia do Saber e no módulo São José do Rio Preto, SP. Adaptado à esfera da Educação, com destaque maior ou menor a cada fator analisado, o modelo de inovação extraído do mundo empresarial favorece o planejamento de novos projetos colaborativos entre universidade e escolas públicas. Ao ser encampada, a iniciativa prossegue viva nas mãos e mentes dos professores inovadores das escolas conveniadas, conforme está bem demonstrado nas etapas realizadas em São José do Rio Preto e Monte Mor (SP).
Abstract: Educational innovation is a pedagogical slogan that gathers different conceptions for exploitation of new technological resources in schools. Large investments have been made in software and equipment, but the expected "innovative result" has not been achieved. Therefore, to reach a real innovation, it is not enough to allocate resources or technology, because other factors are decisive. This thesis integrates the research line called Geo-School Project, which develops proposals of educational innovation by focusing on learning of Geosciences in basic education and Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). The research explores a model of innovation derived from the epistemology of the Hungarian philosopher and scientist M. Polanyi and the model focused on stimulating innovation in organizations - the spiral of knowledge -developed by I. Nonaka and H. Takeuchi. Within this approach, an educational innovation relates to two interconnected notions: the learning project with an investigative approach and schools that create knowledge. The knowledge generated by schools connects a network of relationships that encourages teachers, students and administrators to work together and to develop learning and knowledge structures. The proposed innovation relies in theories of meaningful learning, as revisited by the: (a) opportunities offered by ICTs in education, (b) singularity of geoscientific reasoning; (c) purposes of science education and (d) investigative pedagogical approaches to fieldwork in Geology. The insight of innovation comes from the teachers themselves, who develop multidisciplinary educational projects on Geosciences, based on local realities and the interests of the students and the community. From the first turns of the spiral, the Geo-School Project is analysed in two stages of development: the modules of Campinas and Monte Mor, SP. In addition to these experiences, the author's participation in the design of the "Teia do Saber", a teacher training program, and the module São José do Rio Preto, SP. Each step is presented and discussed through the lens of the innovation model adapted to the educational environment. The innovation model, as extracted from the business world, when adapted to education, helps new collaborative projects between university and public schools. As it is incorporated, the initiative flows through the hands and minds of the innovating school teachers, as it has been well demonstrated in the steps performed in São José do Rio Preto and Monte Mor (SP).

Esta Dissertação é o resultado de um abrangente estudo com o qual objetivo compreender a complexidade dos (des)caminhos nas trajetórias de jovens em processo de inserção profissional do Curso Técnico em Eletrotécnica e Curso Técnico em Química, na Escola Estadual Técnica São João Batista – Montenegro/RS, no período de 2001 a 2004. Desvelar estas complexas trajetórias de inserção profissional, sustentada nos autores com os quais neste texto dialogo, constitui o foco central do meu percurso investigatório, porque é um ponto de partida para a possibilidade de intervenção à mudança. A historicidade (tempo-espaço) perpassa a revisão teórica e a análise da realidade. Focalizo o homem, um sujeito circunscrito por ideologias/crenças engendradas por seu contexto sócio-econômico-cultural, o seu habitus, segundo Pierre Bourdieu. Essas referências sustentam a pesquisa empírica – qualitativa, quando um olhar aguçado nas trajetórias familiares e pessoais de escolaridade e ocupações profissionais resultam em Discursos de Sujeitos Coletivos (orientados por Lefèvre, F. e Lefèvre, A. M. C., 2003). A análise desses discursos viabilizam a demarcação de identidades, geradas em suas histórias de vida; bem como, demarcam preconceitos e obstáculos diversos provocadores de descontinuidades. Acolho as deduções de Guimarães (2004) ao identificar padrões de mobilidade da coorte de trabalhadores demitidos da indústria petroquímica, e defino três padrões de trajetórias de inserção. Concluo que as trajetórias de reconversão do Grupo Laranja e as trajetórias de exclusão do Grupo Azul estão na contramão da formação técnica, que é perseguida nas trajetórias de permanência pelo Grupo Verde. E a escola, ignorando o colorido em sua volta, lida com a pedagogia como se o mundo fosse monocromático, e tudo permanece como está. Embora a Constituição Federativa do Brasil legisle que não pode existir a divisão sexual do trabalho, constato no campo factual trajetórias de inserção profissional condicionadas por preconceito de gênero. Por fim, tomo de Peralva (1997) a conclusão de que as idades da vida não são fenômenos naturais, e sim, sociais e históricos, e são plurais. O que é escrito em determinada idade pelo sujeito, está condicionado pelo seu padrão identitário. A história não é estática, é movimento; por isso mesmo, não são imutáveis os habitus pelos quais transitam os sujeitos. As cores definem identidades e os sujeitos podem transitar entre elas. Esses resultados elucidam os (des)caminhos nas trajetórias dos jovens no seu processo de inserção profissional nos Cursos Técnicos do SJB, indicam a influência do contexto sócio-econômico-cultural e rompem com as promessas anunciadas pela Teoria do Capital Humano. As deduções suscitam novos questionamentos que marcam a incompletude do meu próprio percurso. Um convite à continuidade...This dissertation is the result of a wide-ranging study that aims to understand the complexity of the (out)ways in the trajectories of the young in the process of professional insertion from the Technical Course in Eletrotecnic and Chemistry at SJB Technical State School – Montenegro/RS, from 2001 to 2004. To clarity these complex trajectories of profissional insertion, supported on the authors with whom I dialog on this text, constitutes the focus of my investigator way, because is the first step towards the intervention possibility of changing. The historicity (time-space) goes through the theoretical revision and the analysis of the reality. I focus the man, subject circumscribed by ideologies/beliefs engendered by their socio-economical-cultural context, and their habitus, according to Pierre Bourdieu. These references support the empiric-qualitative research, when a sharp look in the familiar and personal trajectories of school degree and professional occupation result in Speeches of Collective Subjects (guided by Lefévre, F. and Lefévre, A. M. C., 2003). The analysis of these speeches enables the demarcating of identities, generated in their life histories; as well as they demarcate prejudices and diversified obstacles that provoke discontinuities. I take Guimarães (2004) deductions, when he identifies patterns of mobility of the “coorte” of fired workers from the Petrochemical industry, and define three patterns of trajectories of insertion. I conclude that the trajectories of recon version from the orange group and the trajectories of exclusion from the blue group are on the opposite way from the technique formation, which is pursued on the trajectories of permanence by the green group. And the school, ignoring the colored around, deals with pedagogy as if the world was monochromatic, and everything remains the same. Although the Federative Constitution of Brazil says that there can’t be the work sexual division, I see that on the factual field trajectories of professional insertion conditioned to gender prejudice. Finally, I took from Peralva (1997) the conclusion that the ages of life are not natural phenomena, but social and historical, and they are plural. What is written in a definite age by the subject, it is not conditioned by their identification pattern. The history is not static, it is movement; that’s why the habitus through which the subjects go through are not unchangeable. And, still, the colors define identities, but, the subjects may transit among them. These results elucidate the (out) ways in the trajectories of the young in their process of professional insertion from the Technique Courses at SJB, indicate the influence of the socio-economical-cultural context and break with the promises announced by the Human Capital Theory. The deductions generate new questions that mark the sketchiness of my own way. An invitation to the continuity…

Full textAbstract:
M.TECHThis thesis investigates the effects of implementing the rational management in an innovative way in Technical Educational institution in India to achieve the business like operating performance. Based on the analysis of present technical education system in India, we have tried to find the backlogs in the present system and to devise a model that will try to address the problems of present and also encourage students for innovations and research orientation. The model is presented as the combination of theoretical study, experimental work and latest practical exposure. The model education institutions are basis of complete transparency, accountability, responsibility, encouragement for innovations, problem solving and research. It concentrates on theoretical knowledge with practical aspect for quality education, to streamlined the problematic areas and rectify for the betterment of the institution. The model is based on the technique of Analytic Induction Qualitative analysis methodology and rational decision making. This model also provide for continuous pursue of excellence by mean of authority, responsibility and innovations. For the innovations promotion it take in consideration of the 3-component creativity model which unleash the inherent creativity potential of the students.
